Determination of Sample Size and Observation Units

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to write programsto define sampling sizes and observation units by probability sampling methodsand to provide an idea for software developers. Thealgorithms of the programs were written in Python 3. The programs may be run bydouble-clicking on the Windows operating system or by the command prompt of theDOS operating system. Each exe file has a memory space of 5 megabits onaverage. In this respect, the application files are very useful in terms ofsharing by email and mobility by USB memory sticks.
